My Flesh is Real Food: Scripture Study

At last Wednesday's Scripture Study we spent quite almost an hour discussing Chapter 11 of St. Paul?s letter to the Corinthians. That?s where St. Paul reminds us that eating and drinking the body and blood of the Lord is the same as proclaiming his death and resurrection. Do we realize this every time we come to Holy Communion?

Each time we approach the altar we?re making the proclamation: The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand; repent; Jesus the Lord died and is risen. If we remembered this, it would change how we get ready and what we do after we receive Him. Next week, the final week of our Scripture Study, we?ll see how the Church has helped us understand all these things. Join us!
